Sorry I am not brave enough to re-post the whole list, but here is some additional information that might be helpful yet this year or next year:

Penn State: Emailā€¦ā€œUnfortunately, the State of Pennsylvania has enacted new legislation that will make it impossible for us to start our summer camp this year. We apologize for any confusion, but will be postponing the camp until Summer of 2016ā€

NYU Steinhardt: 2015 Tuition $2667 Room/Meals $1263

Would you all be interested in acting intensive programs that wouldn’t include musical theater?

Sorry, on tablet and can’t use red. I think we need some clarification of the NHSI Cherubs program at Northwestern. It is a 5 week straight drama program for $5400. You also have the option of auditioning for the Musical Theatre extension which is an additional 2 weeks after the drama program and costs an extra $2150. You cannot attend the MT extension if you don’t attend the drama portion. Cherubs is only open to rising Seniors. For MPulse at University of Michigan, you might want to note that there is a straight drama option and a musical theatre option, and you can list a preference, but ask to be considered for both.

@bisouu… Yes, please!

This is a 7 week acting intensive with a showcase at the end with industry professionals. My daughter was just admitted :wink:

In the MT schools sub forum under Roosevelt University, someone just posted about a new pre-college summer intensive at CCPA.

I tried to change the color but clearly I don’t know how… I update Oklahoma City U and added Rider

Hi all. We’ve been doing summer programs since my kid was 9. He is now 17 and a senior in HS. We’ve done everything from our local children’s theatre to The Broadway Workshop with Marc Tumminelli. With each experience, my son has taken away something and has used it during the school year. Summer programs can make the difference for you child when it comes to audition time for college. It has to be the right program for your particular kid. In what setting does your child thrive most in? You have to be careful when you hear that a summer program is bringing in ā€œbig namesā€ to do masterclasses. We have found that a lot of these ā€œbig nameā€ people, do exactly the same exercises. One that comes to mind is the ā€œrunning around the room and singing to peopleā€ class. My son has been to around 4 different workshops where the person has them sing their 32 bars and then instructs them to run around the room and stop at points and sing to a particular person in the class. While that is a helpful exercise, how many masterclasses can you child go to and do the same thing? And these are really famous directors, producers and actors. They obviously did the exercise at one point and it was helpful. It is helpful. What I’m saying is, sometimes my son felt that masterclasses can start to feel like a lot of the same. For him, because he has done so many of them. Don’t get me wrong, he always walks away with something from a masterclass. What my son really needed was to be in a musical production with amazing directors, producers and choreographers that would push him and the rest of the cast to take it to the next level. Where he can get individual attention on where he is and what he needs to become in order to really stand out. For the past three summers, my son has gone to The Southeastern Summer Theatre Institute in Hilton Head, South Carolina. Every year, you must send in a video audition tape and they only accept around 30 kids into the program. That in itself speaks volumes since they have almost as many adults running the program. Your child will audition, possible get called back and receive a script all before the program begins. Your child will know all of their lines and songs before day one. It is the most incredible thing to watch as these very talented kids from all over the world come together on day one, focused, professional and excited. This is as intense as it gets. Last summer, the director had just come off of a Broadway show and expected the kids to rise to the occasion. I can go and on, do yourself a favor and go to their website. Right now, my son is doing his prescreens, applications etc. He has passed all of his prescreens, he is confident. We have used all of his videos from his summer musicals on his prescreens and zeemee.com accounts. The Southeastern Summer Theatre Institute or what I like to call, SSTI, has changed my son’s life. He has made lifelong friends from all over the world. The director, Ben Wolfe, is the most genuine, kind-hearted person that we’ve ever met and he has changed my son’s life. He expects everyone to leave their egos at the door and preaches that gratitude is the attitude. At the end of the day, when your child is putting together his/her prescreens for college, you hope that someone will see a spark in your child, something that is uniquely different and interesting about him/her. That is what this program has helped develop in our child. I’m sure I sound like a commercial for this program, but as a parent of a MT kid, I have spent a lot of time and money to help my son find his way and I wanted to share with you our experience. Good luck!
